Geometry Shapes Definitions

Introduction to Definitions of Geometry Shapes :

A branch of mathematics concerned with the properties of lines, curves and surfaces usually divided into pure algebraic and differential geometry in accordance with the mathematical techniques utilized. Here we have to learn about different geometry shapes definition. Please express your views of this topic Types of Quadrilaterals by commenting on blog.

List of Different geometry shapes whose definition follows:

Triangle

Quadrilateral

Pentagon

hexagon

Heptagon

Octagon

Square

Circle


Definitions of Geometry shapes - Triangle, Quadrilateral, Pentagon ,Heptagon, Octagon:


Triangle:A triangle is defined as a polygon with three vertices and three sides which are line segments. A triangle with vertices X, Y, and Z is denoted triangle XYZ.It is generally classified as there types they are isosceles, equilateral, and scalene triangle.

Quadrilateral:It is a plane figure having four straight sides. The word quadrilateral is made of the words quad represents the four similarly laterals represents the sides. The sum of interior angles equal to 360 degree. There are many types of quadrilateral are there like trapezoid, parallelogram, rectangle, kite.

Pentagon:A 5-sided polygon (a flat shape with straight sides)

Heptagon:A plane figure having seven sides. If all the interior angles of a heptagon are equal then it is known as regular heptagon .It is also called as septagon.

Octagon:An 8-sided polygon (a flat shape with straight sides).

I have recently faced lot of problem while learning Obtuse Angle Examples, But thank to online resources of math which helped me to learn myself easily on net.

Definitions of Geometry shapes - Square, Circle, Hexagon:


Square:A 4-sided polygon (a flat shape with straight sides) where all sides have equal length and every angle is a right angle (90°)

Circle:It is a plane curve formed by the set of all points of a given fixed distance from a fixed point .The fixed point is called the centre and the fixed distance the radius of the circle.

Hexagon:A polygon with six sides. A regular hexagon has all its side of equal length and hence all vertical angles are equal and each being 120 degree. A vertex contains 3 diagonals and hence it has fully 9 diagonals.
